Time series of scientific survey estimates of fisheries resources are used to measure
changes in stock size and composition. Standardization of sampling equipment and
design is regarded crucial for reliable trawl and ...

This thesis discusses different ways of analysing left truncated data when
the lower bound itself is a stochastic variable. We will consider the possible
dependence between the variable of interest and the truncating ...

Studying the sublethal effects of catch-and-release (C&R) is challenging, as there are several potential sources of bias. For example, if behavioural alterations immediately after the release event are to be studied, ...

lighting effects in a faster way than global illumination. Its application in volume visualization is of special interest
since it permits us to generate a high quality rendering at a low cost. In this paper, we propose ...

A new derivative-free optimization method for unconstrained optimization of partially separable functions is presented. Using average curvature information computed from sampled function values the method generates an ...

SulfoSYS (Sulfolobus Systems Biology) focuses on the study of the CCM (central carbohydrate metabolism)
of Sulfolobus solfataricus and its regulation under temperature variation at the systems level. In Archaea,
carbohydrates ...

One of the major threats to Lake Victoria is eutrophication and an increasing proliferation of
cyanobacteria. Many cyanobacterial species have the ability to produce toxic compounds
(cyanotoxins), which can cause ...
